Blood RNA transcripts show changes in inflammation and lipid metabolism in Alzheimer’s disease and mitochondrial function in mild cognitive impairment

ABSTRACT: Abnormal immunity in the periphery appears to be involved in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In this study, blood transcriptome analyses of patients with AD, those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) due to AD, and heathy controls were performed to elucidate immune-mediated pathophysiology. The sample included 63 subjects from the Nakayama Study who were clinically diagnosed as (1) healthy controls (N=21), (2) having MCI due to AD (N=20), and (3) having AD (N=21). Blood samples were taken, magnetic resonance imaging was performed, and questionnaires were administered. RNA-seq, differential gene expression, gene ontology, pathway enrichment, and ingenuity pathway analyses were conducted, and polymerase chain reaction testing was performed. The results showed that neutrophil extracellular trap signaling was increased, and lipid metabolism (FXR/RXR activation, triacylglycerol degradation) was decreased in AD, whereas MCI showed protective responses via decreased neutrophil extracellular trap signaling and mitochondrial functions such as upregulation of the sirtuin pathway and downregulation of oxidative stress. Based on these findings, immune cells appear to have important roles in the pathogenesis of AD, and the transcriptome in blood may be useful as a biomarker for diagnosis via monitoring immunity in MCI and AD.

Transcriptomic predictors of rapid progression from mild cognitive impairment to Alzheimer's Disease

Project description:Background: Effective treatment for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) remains an unmet need. Thus, identifying patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) who are at high-risk of progressing to AD is crucial for early intervention. Methods: Blood-based transcriptomics analyses were performed using a longitudinal study cohort to compare progressive MCI (P-MCI, n=28), stable MCI (S-MCI, n=39), and AD patients (n=49). Statistical DESeq2 analysis and machine learning methods were employed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and develop prediction models. Results: We discovered a remarkable gender-specific difference in DEGs that distinguish P-MCI from S-MCI. Machine learning models achieved high accuracy in distinguishing P-MCI from S-MCI (AUC 0.93), AD from S-MCI (AUC 0.94), and AD from P-MCI (AUC 0.92). An 8-gene signature was identified for distinguishing P-MCI from S-MCI.

Prognosis prediction model for Alzheimer’s disease conversion from mild cognitive impairment by integrative analysis of multi-omics data

Project description:Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a clinical precursor of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Many MCI subjects convert to AD, although others remain stable as MCI or sometimes return to cognitive normal. Currently, there are no curative treatments for patients who are already in AD, and therefore biomarkers for early detection of high risk MCI-to-AD conversion subjects are rapidly required. Here, we investigated potential biomarkers from blood-based miRNA (miR) expression profiles and genomic data of 197 Japanese MCI patients. Using the candidate biomarkers, we constructed a prognosis prediction model based on a Cox proportional hazard model. The final prediction model, composed of 24 miR-eQTLs (i.e. SNP-miRNA pairs) and three clinical factors (age, sex and ApoE ε4 carriers), successfully classified MCI patients into two groups, low and high, in terms of risk of MCI-to-AD conversion (log-rank trend test P=3.44×10^(-4)), and achieved a concordance index of 0.702 on an independent test set. Network-based meta-analysis using target genes of the miR-eQTLs further revealed four important hub genes (SHC1, FOXO1, GSK3B, and PTEN) associated with the pathogenesis of AD. Statistically significant differences were observed in PTEN expression between MCI and AD and SHC1 expression between cognitively normal elder subjects (CN) and AD when examining RNA-seq data from 610 blood samples (PTEN, P=0.023; SHC1, P=0.049), although FOXO1 and GSK3B showed low levels of expression in blood. Accurate prediction of MCI-to-AD conversion enables earlier appropriate intervention for those MCI patients and can lead to a reduction of MCI patients that convert to AD with high risk. We believe that further investigation with larger sample sizes will contribute to practical clinical use of our approach in MCI-to-AD conversion in the near future.

Circulating microRNAs associated to cerebrospinal fluid amyloid-β and phosphorylated tau levels as potential non-invasive biomarkers for mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer’s disease

Project description:To identify the potential biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD) based on circulating microRNAs (miRNAs), we developed a new approach using feature selection and linear mixed model. The miRNA sequencing data of 105 plasma and 112 serum samples from 112 subjects including 28 AD cases, 63 mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and 21 controls were used to identify cerebrospinal fluid biomarkers associated miRNAs. The potential of these miRNAs as biomarkers of AD or MCI was researched and validated via both internal and external dataset. Patient classification was effectuated in compliance with the NIA-AA criteria for “MCI due to AD” and “Dementia due to AD”.

Music compensates for altered gene expression in age-related cognitive disorders

Project description:Extensive literature has explored the beneficial effects of music in age-related cognitive disorders (ACD), but limited knowledge exists regarding its impact on gene expression. We analyzed transcriptomes of ACD patients and healthy controls, pre-post a music session (n=60), and main genes/pathways were compared to those dysregulated in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) as revealed by a multi-cohort study (n=1269 MCI/AD and controls). Music was associated with 2.3 times more whole-genome gene expression, particularly on neurodegeneration-related genes, in ACD than controls. Co-expressed gene-modules and pathways analysis demonstrated that music impacted autophagy, vesicle and endosome organization, biological processes commonly dysregulated in MCI/AD. Notably, the data indicated a strong negative correlation between musically-modified genes/pathways in ACD and those dysregulated in MCI/AD. These findings highlight the compensatory effect of music on genes/biological processes affected in MCI/AD, providing insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the benefits of music on these disorders.

Systems-level analysis of peripheral blood gene expression in dementia patients reveals an innate immune response shared across multiple disorders [ftd]

Project description:The role of peripheral inflammation in dementia is an important but complex topic. We present here the largest cohort of peripheral blood gene expression data ever assembled from patients with dementia and matching controls. Importantly, this cohort includes individuals from a diverse set of dementia disorders, including Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and multiple disorders within the frontotemporal dementia (FTD) spectrum. We found strong transcriptional evidence of an innate immune inflammatory response, mediated by monocytes and neutrophils, in AD, MCI, and two FTD subtypes, PSP and nfvPPA. This transcriptional inflammatory response is enriched for genetic risk for AD, in part because it is also enriched for microglial genes, which have previously been implicated in AD risk. Finally, we show that this transcriptional response is strongly enriched for binding of the transcription factors PU.1 and RELA, which have previously been linked to AD risk and progression.

Shotgun-based Proteomics of Extracellular Vesicles in Alzheimer’s Disease Reveals Biomarkers Involved in Immunological and Coagulation Pathways

Project description:Alzheimer’s dementia (AD) is the most common form of dementia and without readily available clinical biomarkers. Blood-derived proteins are routinely used for diagnostics, however, comprehensive plasma profiling is challenging due to the large dynamic range in protein concentrations. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can cross the blood-brain barrier and may provide a source for AD related biomarkers. We investigated plasma-derived EV proteins for biomarkers towards AD diagnostics from 10 AD patients, 10 Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) patients, and 9 healthy controls (Con) using liquid chromatography - tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). EV enrichment was performed using a double centrifugation of 100,000 × g, 1h, 4°C with a wash of the pellet. Some AD patients presented with highly elevated FXIIIA1 (log2 FC: 4.6, p-value: 0.005) and FXIIIB (log2 FC: 4.9, p-value: 0.018). A group of proteins was identified discriminating Con and AD (AUC: 0.91, CI: 0.67-1.00) with ORM2 (AUC: 1.00, CI: 1.00-1.00), RBP4 (AUC: 0.99, CI: 0.95-1.00), and HYDIN (AUC: 0.89, CI: 0.72-1.00) found especially relevant for AD. This indicates that EVs provide an easily accessible matrix for possible biomarkers for AD. Some of the MCI patients, with similar protein profiles as the AD group progressed to AD within a 2-year timespan.
